A dynamic wave of enthusiasm filled the virtual room as future architects from Columban College, Inc. logged in to power up for the ILAYA challenge. Gathering online across the screen, these sharp young minds jumped right into exploring how civic centers can be reimagined to serve local communities.

Our sincere gratitude to College of Architecture Program Chair Ar. Jennifer Sta. Juana for giving us a digital platform to connect with the students and supporting this virtual orientation.

We extend special appreciation to Ar. Jan Adrian Corpuz and Ar. Xyzenz Sheen Eugenio for logging in and being in attendance, as well as the student organizers who helped facilitate a seamless online session.

To the passionate Columban College architecture students who tuned in and actively engaged: thank you for bringing great focus to the session! We can't wait to see you bring bold ideas to life and make your mark on ILAYA!
